Phone Book 2020

The phone book is almost done, but there are still a few people, mostly ones new to the island who I can't include because I can't reach them to get their permission or their details.  

Having at least some contact information in the phone book is a considerable aid to the Fire Department/First Responders.  

There's no obligation to do it, and we certainly don't put anyone in there without permission, but if you would care to be included, please let me know in the next two weeks.  

The next book won't come out for another two years, so now's the time to think about it!

Pre-Order Fresh Peonies

I would like to thank you all for your huge support buying grandma's flowers at the last year's summer market - I enjoyed getting to know my community.

Sadly, due to coronavirus, the market was cancelled this year. But Marylyn has been very kind to let me set up a table for my flowers at the Howling Wolf Farm Market and I am so thankful.

We planted so much more peonies than last year!

You can pre-order PEONY bouquets during the week by sending an email to my mom kristinakasting@icloud.com OR call/text her 250-510-0283 

We'll be getting bouquets ready on Friday so you can pick them up on Saturday at Howling Wolf from 12noon to 4pm.

$10.00 a bouquet OR $15.00 for two bouquets

E-transfer to kristinakasting@icloud.com or leave cash in the "Flower money" jar during pickup.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
